Local Roots Food Tours offers food and farm adventures throughout Sacramento and its beautiful valley region. We offer 3 different walking food and cultural tours in Sacramento. Going beyond the big city - our other walking food tour can be found in picturesque Murphys,CA. Murphys Food & Wine Tour explores the Queen of the Sierra - a wonderful mining town with 8 delicious stops including food and wine. Ranked #1 Tour in Sacramento by Trip Advisor. Each tour offers a large variety of tastings (10+), while visiting 6-10 different specialty food shops, artisans, and neighborhood restaurants. All of our tours are offered year-round, last between 3.5 to 4 hours and range between $42 - $70, depending on the tour. The tours focus on F.L.O.S.S. (fresh, local, organic, seasonal, and sustainable) foods and beverages. Enough food is served on each tour that most guests consider it a meal. Savor, learn, explore and connect to some amazing communities and their culinary dishes.

Thanks so much to our fabulous tour guide Leslie for a fantastic afternoon! My partner, and I, and four friends recently joined the Gourmet on K tour. It was a large group (maybe 15 people?) and Leslie did a great job of breaking the ice, bringing the group together and, of course, setting us up with some seriously good grub....

Thank you so much to Sandy who offered us an upbeat informative tour of Murphys. We were so enchanted that we are imagining our retirement return. Amazing food at every stop! Loved the Sushi, the cupcake war won us over and we are bringing home many wines, olive oils, spices and balsamic vinegars. A great way to begin your stay...

We had a super fun time on the Public Art and Libations Tour of Sacramento with Local Roots! I bought this tour as a Christmas gift for my boyfriend, who loves art and food, and it did not disappoint. Directions/access to the meeting place were good, and we had no trouble finding inexpensive all day parking. Leslie, our guide, was...

From the moment we met up with our group, our great time began! Leslie was an excellent guide with an upbeat attitude and lots of good information (she even gave us fun facts about the neighborhoods we walked through!). The food was great, and a manager or chef from each establishment gave us special attention and answered all our questions....

We enjoyed the indepth experience of restaurants, wineries and shops with town tales by Tonja thrown in. At Alchemy we had a meet and greet with Chef Jason and served plated food with a paired beverage. And this was just the beginning! Don't miss this tour.

My wife and I were both raised in Sacramento, so the area is familiar to us. However, since we are both food lovers and we like the downtown area, and we now live in Roseville, we decided to try the downtown walk and culinary tour. What an absolute joy! We had Leslie as our guide, and she is just plain...

Our guide, Tonja, was fantastic! She has lived in the local area for 25 years and knows everyone. Every place we visited she had a personal connection with the hosts and we were treated accordingly. Her local knowledge led to interesting tidbits and her enthusiasm for the area was reflected in her demeanor and presentation. She is truly an outstanding...
